Kpop stars are famous fashionistas. They  pick up on trends and take them to the next level. The stripes trend is no different. Groups coordinated different colors, sizes, and orientation of stripes, and they became a staple in 2013 Kpop fashion.
Let's take a look.

The inspiration (on the runway):
Tommy Hilfiger, Michael Kors, Marc Jacobs

Circle lenses have been popular in Asia for a long time, but more and more lenses come in different colors rather than just enlarged irises. So let's take a look at the variety of colored lenses idols (girls & guys) wear. Almost every "odd" comeback this year has had someone with colored lenses in (e.g. 'I Got a Boy', 'Jeon Won Diary', 'Rum Pum Pum Pum', 'Baddest Female', 'What's Your Name', 'Breakdown', etc.)
These are not every circle lens sighting, but they cover many major groups. 

THE GIRLS:

On Shinwha Brodcast Ep. 50, Hyesung wore a button-up shirt featuring guns on the collar.

The shirt is from Korean MVIO's S/S 2013 collection.
No buylink, comment if you have one.

We have another 'Who wore it better?'. 
This time it's Shinhwa's Hyesung vs. JYJ's Jaejoong. Ohh tough.

Do you love Korean face products? Yes? Then Tony Moly is the place for you! Tony Moly is one of many face shops in Korea with a vast array of products. I recently interviewed a sales woman from Tony Moly, and she graciously shared some of her favorite items and also why you should shop there whilst in Korea!
_____

What's your name and how long have you worked at Tony Moly?

My name is Lee Hee Jin and I've worked at Tony Moly for 3 years. Also I'm in college learning English!

What's your personal favorite item Tony Moly sells and why? Do you like nail polish? I love nail polish. :D

My favorite item is the Backstage Jell Liner because it's waterproof and was featured on the Beauty TV channel as a top product so its really good. And yes I love nail polish. My favorite color to wear is orange!



TONY MOLY Backstage Gel Eye Liner $7.49

BB Cream is very popular in Korea and is growing in popularity overseas. If someone wanted to purchase some from Tony Moly, which should they try? What are its best qualities?

Yes, BB cream is very popular in Korea. Our best BB Cream is Luminous Goddess Aura Beam with SPF 30. It's a color change BB Cream so when you put it on and rub it in it turns to your skin completion so it's good as a foundation. Also it has a moisture base so it's great for your skin.

Summer is quickly approaching. What is the must have product for the season?

 Definitely the must have product for the summer is sunscreen. We have a really great one called UV Sunset Moisture Sun cream that is oil free. I would definitely recommend that one.
Tony Moly sells so many awesome products but which is the most popular item and why?

Our number one product is the Intense Care Galactomyces First Essence. It's an anti-wrinkle and whitening treatment booster all in one. It's actually great for all ages because it prevents bad skin and improves your skin while you're young. So it's good for any age demographic.


Intense Care Galactomyces First Essence $56.98

I know you get a lot of foreign customers so what do they tend to purchase from Tony Moly? I personally adore the lip sticks and face masks but what seems to be the most popular items for your foreign customers? Face washes? Make Up? BB Creams?

Foreigners seem to be more drawn to our makeup, nail polishes and eye shadows. So definitely our makeup products are the most popular with our foreign customers.
The fine talented men of JYJ are the current spokes models for Tony Moly. I personally LOVE Junsu and Yoochun. (Oh yeah!) Who's your favorite member?

I like Won Bin. :D
(Sorry no link to buy JYJ :D)

Lastly please tell the readers why they should shop at Tony Moly.

Tony Moly has really good products that I feel everyone will enjoy. There's so much to choose from. Tony Moly is number 1!

Year 2 Baby!


Guess what? Jaejoong is wearing a pair of rainboots in the picture above. I did not believe it either until the picture of the rainboots on the right. But at least they are really expensive ones from a brand that has been producing boots for over 100 years. The brand Aigle makes these boots called Equibelle. They usually retail from 160 - 200$. I cannot find a buy link but...what are the chances anyone is going to buy them?
Also, the brand Aigle makes those strawberry, orange and apple rainboots that Orange Caramel, Kara and other kpop stars wears.

Happy Year 2
Don't forget to enter the contests.

I wonder if I should put this under DBSK or JYJ. T_T

Hey Nikki here. Long time no see ^^.
Sorry for my long absense, Maria and readers T_T.
I hope to be back fully, it's just that non-school things are really catching up on me, which means I have lots of activities which I like, but then time for other things are getting harder to get.. but! I won't rant on about my life, on with the find ^^.

 I will say this from the start: This shirt/tank top I am featuring from Forever 21 is sold out EVERYWHERE. They do not sell it anymore, apparently. I bet though it would be on sale on ebay or other auction sites.

 Anyhow, it is a find that Mr. Beauty Voice from DBSK and youngster from T-ara were sharing... interesting right?

 I bet many know about Jaejoong's rather feminine tank top. There were many fan accounts (another one here.)on how the shirt he was wearing at Gimpo Airport on the 7 of December last year was very similar, if not identical, to that which was sold in Forever 21 stores.
Then people began to clarify that a fan had sent him that shirt.

 I was watching older performances, and while I was watching TTL Listen 2 by T-ara & Supernova (a song which I love!) I saw that maknae of t-ara, JiYeon, was wearing the Faith Shirt as well during the 15th Dream Concert in 2009.

 Here are the pictures:

It is a little hard to see JiYeon. Here's a youtube video of TTL Listen2 performance.

 Interesting, right? ^^

Nikki here.

So I was cruising through DBSK photos online, and found a picture from DBSK Sleepless Nights with JaeJoong at Gimpo Airport on the 16th of April. He was holding a Louis Vuitton Stephen Sprouse Graffitti Zippy Wallet.



Very Colorful, indeed ^^.

I could only find a site selling a used (but like new) wallet for $725 O_O.
Check out the site here for more HQ pictures of the wallet, and here for more (stalker) pictures of JaeJoong.

So, from my aunt in japan, I was able to get my hands on JJ magazine featuring DBSK!!! XD XD XD XD XD XD XD
And usually on japanese magazines they post what clothing the "models" are wearing.. !! Mostly for these top artists, it's usually the "stylist's own clothing" hence they don't even put the brand name down, but I found some that DBSK were wearing ^^.

UNFORTUNATELY I couldnt find anything for Changmin T_T T_T T_T so sad T_T
So to compensate that, here is a collage just for Changmin ^^.


This picture comes from this site. I love how Changmin's smile never makes me grow tired of it ^^.

And, we love you Changmin!



Now, for the JJ magazine finds ^^.


Max Changmin:



He is wearing Cargo pants from Halb and a Garden of Eden necklace. The rest is the stylist's clothing.


Micky Yoochun:



He is wearing Halb's Stripy Shirt for 20,000 yen (approx. $210)(I'm pretty sure) this is from Halb's Spring Summer 2010 collection.
He is also wearing clothing of the stylist.


U-Know Yunho:



Leader is wearing Halb's Argyle pattern long cardigan in charcol grey for a reduced price of 14,000. (approx. $150). This is from Halb's Spring Summer 09 collection.
He is also wearing a necklace from Garden of Eden (Y11,550). The rest is the stylist's.


Xiah Junsu:



Junsu is wearing a V-neck from Halb. It's from their 2010 Spring Summer collection. I found a similar (possibly a fake, since it goes by the brand Halb...) here for 14,700 yen.
Junsu is also wearing a necklace from Garden of Eden. The rest is yet again the stylist's clothing.


Finally, but definately not the least,
Hero JaeJoong



Jae is wearing a Checkered shirt by Halb (which I believe is the same one from their 2010 Spring Summer collection, shown above.) He is also wearing an Iroquois X Garden of Eden collaboration necklace (rose choker) for 17,850 yen (approx. $190)
The rest is, as you may have guessed, are they stylist's clothing.

Halb, Garden of Eden and Iroquois are all japanese brands.
All the sites provided are in Japanese, except the Rakuten ones (Micky's shirt and Yunho's cardigan.) Rakuten has both english and japanese.

Request by Phivo - Animal PJ's and more!
For the most part, I found (and Maria found them a looong time ago too) the brand that SHINee was wearing - Their homepage also advertises it.

MinOg

TaeCken

All found at the original site - SAZAC.

Also - I Couldn't find Thunder's exact Giraffe one, but at SAZAC they sold a giraffe PJ.

ThunRaffe

As with Mir's Bear PJ, somehow all the bear PJ's that I found don;t seem to be his.

A little extra for the PJ's......

JaeSter!

Now for the head pieces -

Joon is wearing a Taiyaki, a popular snack in Japan. It's basically like pancakes with Anko (Adzuki Bean Paste) inside. It's pretty good, when it's not mushy XD.

JoonYaki
This I found on Rakuten, a Japanese site. There is an english version for Rakuten that ships internationally, but I couldn't find this taiyaki there T_T.
but if you do wanna check out the japanese Rakuten, go here and ask me for more info so I can help you with ordering XD.

Also another find from the same exact page, basically.
DaCrab
Go here.

Hope that cleared most of your misteries, Phivo!
